Abstract

To identify potentially transplantable organs in a pool of marginal kidneys, 33 porcine slaughterhouse kidneys were perfused for 4 h with whole blood. During the normothermic perfusion, plasma, urine, and tissue samples were taken. Several biomarkers for tubule injury, endothelial activation, and inflammatory response were evaluated for a potential correlation with macroscopic appearance, histology, and filtration activity. Generally, biomarker levels increased during perfusion. TLR-4, EDN-1, and NGAL were not associated with any classification. In contrast, a steeper increase in NAG and IL-6 in plasma correlated with a poor macroscopic appearance at 4 h, indicating a higher inflammatory response in the kidneys with worse macroscopy early on, potentially due to more damage at the tubules. Although long-term effects on the graft could not be assessed in this setting, early observation under machine perfusion with whole blood was feasible. It allowed the assessment of kidneys under conditions comparable to reperfusion. This setting could give surgeons further insight into the quality of marginal kidneys and an opportunity to pre-treat them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

13. Stellenwert wasserbezogener Rehabilitationsmaßnahmen bei Stomaträgern

Author

Putz, Juliane, Borkowetz, Angelika, Schlumberger, Gina Benita, Huber, Johannes, and Thomas, Christian

Abstract

Hintergrund: Die Anlage eines Hautstomas nach exenterativen Beckeneingriffen stellt für Betroffene einen drastischen Einschnitt in die körperliche Integrität dar. Vielfach führen ästhetische und funktionelle Bedenken dazu, dass wasserbezogene Angebote zur Rehabilitation nicht genutzt werden. Fragestellung: Ziel war es, im Rahmen des Pilotprojekts „UROAquaFIT“ die Möglichkeit einer wasserbezogenen Rehabilitationsmaßnahme für Patienten nach Zystektomie mit inkontinenter Harnableitung zu evaluieren. Methode: Im Rahmen des Pilotkurses „UROAquaFIT“ wurde Patienten nach radikaler Zystektomie mit inkontinenter Harnableitung die Möglichkeit einer wasserbezogenen Rehabilitationsmaßnahme angeboten. Aufgeteilt in Kleingruppen erfolgte ein Wassergymnastikkurs unter Anleitung einer Physiotherapeutin und einer Stomatherapeutin unter ärztlicher Aufsicht. Daten zur Lebensqualität und der persönlichen Beurteilung des Kurses mittels Fragebögen wurden vor Beginn und 6 Monate nach Kursende erhoben und qualitativ ausgewertet. Darüber hinaus erfolgte eine Literaturrecherche (MEDLINE) zum Thema Aquagymnastik in der Onkologie. Ergebnis und Diskussion: Das Kursangebot wurde von allen Teilnehmern als durchweg positiv und bereichernd empfunden. Wohlbefinden und Selbstwertgefühl der Probanden konnten gesteigert werden. Wassergymnastik unter gezielter physio- und stomatherapeutischer Anleitung kann somit eine höchst effektive Rehabilitationsmaßnahme für Patienten nach inkontinenter Harnableitung darstellen. Darüber hinaus stärkt sie die körperliche Integrität der Betroffenen und erweitert somit die Möglichkeiten der sozialen Reintegration. Diese Form der Therapie sollte als fester Baustein in der Rehabilitation nach exenterativen Beckeneingriffen mit Stomaanlage verankert werden.

Abstract

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) offers a unique opportunity to objectively assess donor organ quality. This study describes the evaluation of inulin clearance as a potential marker for the ex vivofunction of porcine kidneys during NMP. The function assessment was performed in both kidneys from slaughterhouse pigs (n = 20) and kidneys from pigs in a laboratory setting (n = 28). The kidneys were exposed to different warm ischemia times (WIT). After a period of static cold storage, the kidneys underwent a 4-hour NMP with autologous whole blood. Inulin clearance, hemodynamic parameters, and urine output were measured. Based on the inulin excretion behavior laboratory pig kidneys were assigned to three classes (functional, limited functional, and nonfunctional), slaughterhouse pig kidneys to two classes (limited functional and nonfunctional), respectively. Contrary to the marginal kidneys of the slaughterhouse pigs, the functional variation of kidneys of the laboratory pigs was associated with the WIT. A correlation between functional kidneys and a WIT less than 25 min was shown. Because none of the slaughterhouse pig kidneys could be assigned to the functional class, only the laboratory pig kidneys were used for examinations with functional markers. Renal blood flow and urine output during NMP correlated significantly (p< 0.01) with ex vivokidney function. This study demonstrated that inulin is a marker of high quality for the evaluation of suggested kidney function after NMP with whole blood. Furthermore, surrogate markers measured during NMP can be used to describe and predict the physiologic behavior of kidneys before transplantation.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: In the Eurotransplant Kidney Allocation System (ETKAS), transplant candidates can be considered for high-urgency (HU) status in case of life-threatening inability to undergo renal replacement therapy. Data on the outcomes of HU transplantation are sparse and the benefit is controversial. METHODS: We systematically analysed data from 898 ET HU kidney transplant recipients from 61 transplant centres between 1996 and 2010 and investigated the 5-year patient and graft outcomes and differences between relevant subgroups. RESULTS: Kidney recipients with an HU status were younger (median 43 versus 55 years) and spent less time on the waiting list compared with non-HU recipients (34 versus 54 months). They received grafts with significantly more mismatches (mean 3.79 versus 2.42; P < 0.001) and the percentage of retransplantations was remarkably higher (37.5 versus 16.7%). Patient survival (P = 0.0053) and death with a functioning graft (DwFG; P < 0.0001) after HU transplantation were significantly worse than in non-HU recipients, whereas graft outcome was comparable (P = 0.094). Analysis according to the different HU indications revealed that recipients listed HU because of an imminent lack of access for dialysis had a significantly worse patient survival (P = 0.0053) and DwFG (P = 0.0462) compared with recipients with psychological problems and suicidality because of dialysis. In addition, retransplantation had a negative impact on patient and graft outcome. CONCLUSIONS: Facing organ shortages, increasing wait times and considerable mortality on dialysis, we question the current policy of HU allocation and propose more restrictive criteria with regard to individuals with vascular complications or repeated retransplantations in order to support patients on the non-HU waiting list with a much better long-term prognosis.

Abstract

Simple Summary: Currently, a combination therapy of standard androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus docetaxel or androgen receptor-axis-targeted therapy is the gold standard for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment. Compared to ADT monotherapy, combination treatment prolongs overall survival by at least 18 months. The latest data has shown that triple treatment with standard ADT plus docetaxel plus abiraterone is superior to standard ADT plus docetaxel. Ongoing clinical trials are investigating triple therapy protocols by affecting diverse signaling pathways that are pivotal in prostate cancer. In this review, we will explore if triple therapy has the potential to be the new standard for mHSPC treatment in the near future. For decades, mono androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has been the gold standard for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment. Several studies have been published within the last seven years demonstrating a significant survival advantage by combination treatment with standard ADT plus docetaxel or androgen receptor-axis-targeted therapy (ARAT) compared to ADT monotherapy. As a result, overall survival can be prolonged by at least 18 months. Recently published congress data of the PEACE-1 study suggests that in the future, triple therapy might be the new gold standard. In addition to this study, which has shown that triple treatment with standard ADT plus docetaxel plus abiraterone is superior to standard ADT plus docetaxel, several other phase III triple therapy studies are currently ongoing. The different modes of action that are investigated reach from AR-targeting over mitotic inhibition and immunotherapy to PARP and AKT inhibition. In this review we will explore if triple therapy has the potential to be the new standard for mHSPC treatment in the near future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: The creation of a skin stoma after exenterative pelvic surgery drastically affects the physical health of patients. Being concerned with aesthetic and functional aspects, patients tend to not participate in offers for water-related rehabilitation, especially water gymnastics and swimming., Objective: The aim of the pilot project "UROAquaFIT" was to evaluate the feasibility of water-related rehabilitation for patients after cystectomy with incontinent urinary diversion., Methods: Patients after radical cystectomy with incontinent urinary diversion were offered the possibility to participate in the water-based rehabilitation program "UROAquaFIT". Split into small groups, a water gymnastics course took place under the guidance of a physiotherapist and a stoma therapist as well as under medical supervision. Data on quality of life and a personal assessment were collected using a questionnaire before and 6 months after the course. In addition, a MEDLINE-based search for aqua gymnastics in oncology was conducted., Results and Conclusion: All participants reported the course as being positive and enriching. The participants' well-being and self-esteem improved. Therefore, water gymnastics can be a highly effective method for rehabilitation of patients with incontinent urinary diversion. In addition, it improves the physical health of those affected and thus expands the possibilities for social reintegration. This form of therapy should be standard in the rehabilitation of patients with incontinent urinary diversion., (© 2022. The Author(s).)
